Nano-Modification of Building 
Composite Structures
Evgeny Chernishov, Olga Artamonova and Galina Slavcheva
Abstract
The paper reviews the theoretical framework of nano-modification principles of 
building composites and experimental verification of these principles. The concepts 
of nano-modification of building composite structures are studied. The paper also 
suggests the conceptual model of the nano-modification from the point of view 
of the evolutionary model of a solid-phase formation depending on the kinetics of 
heterogeneous processes. The technological tools of nano-modification of building 
composites are substantiated. Cement-based materials are shown as an object of 
nano-modification. Their hydration kinetics, phase composition, microstructure, 
and strength characteristics are investigated. The results are analyzed based on the 
special performance criteria which confirm that the efficiency of cement-based 
materials technological cycle can be improved by nano-modification.
